Francis Cabrel

Song 21:365 is my version of Francis Cabrel’s Petite Marie, dating from 1977, and which became one of Cabrel’s most popular songs reaching #5 in the French charts and #8 in the Quebec charts. This song is also in my least popular (and least favourite) key – with only five other songs in B minor in my entire collection!

Today’s tune is Octobre, a beautiful song by Francis Cabrel taken from the 1994 album Samedi Soir Sur La Terre. To this day it’s Cabrel’s best-selling album, and the 2nd best-selling album in France of all time.
